Africa is a continent. What they found some peoples found in the southern Mediterranean regions had a shared reaction. To then go "Africans should avoid..." Is to do massive disservice to the practice of medicine.

No meaningful concept of race is used, so it is in fact meaningless. You might be able to group people into hundreds of haploid groups. But white, black, yellow, red, Asian, European, African, Native American, is so broad to be not just useless but actively harmful by providing misinformation as facts.

Racial disparities in health is tracking the social issues from racism both how it effects patients views on themselves and their care providers view of them.

The actual mapping of phenotype and hereditary to health based on it is not. It's a step above astrology as medicine, but still mostly bullshit pseudoscience that was wrong 200 years ago and has only gotten less scientific.

Honestly, and people will argue in this thread that "actually there are some trends". No, not really. Race as always is a shit ass way to categorize people. Income has a tighter correlation for most things. What about genetics conditions they ask? Track fucking genotypes then. What about phenotypical conditions like melatonin correlation to sun burns? Again, that singular fucking attribute does a better job as measure the thing that fucking matters!

What doesn't do that is the social construct based on the most visable phenotypes associated with a region in the world over 200 hundred fucking years ago!!

Hacker convention that happens every year in Las Vegas the first week of August. It's right after BlackHat which is much more industry focused, where DEFCON is more everyone else (to some degree, plenty of sponsors hanging around the place now too).

For more info this is there main site. https://defcon.org/?mob=1

Not that low, but kind of tbh. He intentionally has a very repetitive diet to reduce analysis paralysis and unnecessary (to him) decision making. All of the recipes can be found here: https://protocol.bryanjohnson.com/Recipe-Guide-by-Zero

His fitness routine: https://protocol.bryanjohnson.com/#fitness

His sleep routine: https://protocol.bryanjohnson.com/#sleep-health

like yeah he is doing crazy stuff like gene therapy and nearly a hundred supplements, but also some much more mundane things.

He's a big advocate of sunscreen too. His dental and skin aren't totally bonkers to me. Though I'm not a fan of products like that (just cheap and don't like reoccuring costs).

More vice signalling, just small people trying to pretend they are tough by acting gross

This. Honestly things like image detection, anomaly detection over big data sets, and semantic searching, all seem very useful in professional contexts.

Generative AI not heavily grounded in real data is just better for no-risks tasks.

They have a tiny version that is listed as 1000 on their website, plus the simulation is FOSS

You seem to think we disagree on creation of a police state or massive surveillance system being a bad thing for some reason. None of which are stopped with regulations by the states that are funding and building said things ...

For sure they are! Meta more then the others though

I fall somewhere on the AuAHD side of things. For me two issues arise. It can take me a few minutes to hours to really feel something for complex emotions, then a day or two to let it pass. Some more basic emotions like irritation/overstimulation can be felt immediately, before I even get a chance to think about it.

I also can experience issues where a fixation becomes and emotional anchor and I have trouble processing other events emotionally. Sometimes it's kind of a coping mechanism

Collaboration. Industry leaders, universities, and hobbbiests can all collaborate in the same place rather then siloing to their own infrastructure

 

With the boycott for Teslas seemingly going strong I was wondering if anyone has successfully removed the proprietary software off any of the models or removed it from the Tesla network?

Considering that the cameras send data to other cars on the network to be processed (using the customers power instead of the company's) this seems better than just reselling to me.

I am trying to migrate to cooperative or mutual owned businesses in my life, but one real problem I have is managing all of the elections and votes I am part of now.

Does anyone know of good tools to help store and track stakeholder rights and participation? Like reminders that a vote is in month. Best places to find updates and info. Etc?

 

Open Source principles applied to biotech is a way we can today fight against the capture of oligarchical seed companies of the very foods we all need to live. Check out here to see what organizations in your area are part of the Global Coalition of Open Source Seed Initiatives (GOSSI).

 

Does anyone know if/when AMD will support Linux on their new NPU? If it's never or too far out, what is everyone else looking towards for open source AI development?

This issue is apparently tracking the Linux communities request for it.

 

Hello all, I am just curious if anyone has taken a tool like community rule to define how their instance or community control is handled? Even more so if there has been any effort to make the actual decision-making actionable by the system.

 
 

Has anyone messed with using the very large jumbo frames for IPv6 for anything like video transfer, or large file transfers?

I'm curious if anyone has done it for firewall overhead reduction too
